I too have a link pin in Brisbane which has adjusters fitted. Currently it also has a Whiteline sway bar and almost new Konis, but I could split to the parts you need,

well my plans are to rebuild the beam and fit an airbag on their.
not sure on the difference on link pin or ball joint. as the work is being done proffesionally..
by adjuster that means its had the middle section cut out and that nut system ( quicker way of lowering it)
im not 100% sure on what you mean

its going on a type 3 squareback

Yeah it is the cut and weld in type nut adjuster system. From the sounds of what you'd be doing it'd be better to just start with a bare beam. Mine has been rebuilt etc., so would suit just installing in car straight up.
